I would expect anyone claiming to be intelligent to be able to beat an Atari 2600 set to its very lowest difficulty. This is a task on par with counting the number of Rs in the word ‘strawberry’, something the intelligent ChatGPT also famously cannot do.
Do you think being good at chess is equivalent to intelligence…?
Those are also vastly different tasks, a toddler can count, while they likely can’t play chess.
You have a very strange notion of what “intelligence” means.
A toddler untrained at counting and untrained at chess would be good at neither. Same goes for adults, you are untrained in rocket physics, so you won’t be good at it either. Why are you holding an ai at some weird ungodly bar that doesn’t apply to anything else? No one’s claimed it to be good at these things. Adults who can’t swim and go in water drown, why? Because they weren’t taught. Notice a pattern yet?

It’s actually not that easy. Fire up an emulator and take it for a spin. Like, you won’t get away with obvious mistakes.
First try. I did make a few mistakes, but the 2600 made more.

It’s the beginner difficulty on very weak hardware. It’s designed to be easily beatable even if you don’t know much about chess.
Swimming is pretty easy, yet people drown.
